Rainy Season!

The smell of rain is amazing. So crisp and clean. When we first arrived I noticed that it smells sweeter here. I don't know if it is from the fruit or the flowers but it is amazing.

Last Friday Mitchell and I went to the medical outreach. The little kids were so precious. As we were setting up a young boy was dancing and singing for me. We gave out the hard candies that Greg Tunnell gave to us at our going away party and the kids loved them.

Please pray for our health. It seems that every week either Mitchell or I are sick or injured or something like that. Also pray that all of the paperwork that Robin has to get filed goes well.

Thank you for all of your prayers over baby Theo. He is gaining weight, though he is still underweight for his age. He is very irritable and hard to keep happy. Please pray that we all have patience with him as he is learning how to be loved and taken care of.

A while back I think that I blogged about a little boy that was here for one night named Asheraf. We found out that two Fridays ago he passed away. He was born without a valve between his right atrium and ventricle (or something like that, I am not a doctor). His short 9 month life was full of witchcraft and superstition and a drinking mother that didn't take care of him. Even though his death his untimely and tragic I rejoice that he is in the arms of our Savior. Like the song says "In the arms of our dear savior o there are 10,000 charms"
